The visit of this celebrated specialist is fast
drawing to d close. 1t has been marked by an
s unparalleled practice. in affections of the Eye.
Ear, Nose and Throat. adjusting spectaeles and
inserting artificial Eyes. Not only have the
afflicted of the city taken advantage of his I'M
rivaled skill. but his success has attracted
large number from throughout the State. almost
every county being represented among his
patients. While his reputation has been made
by the almost miraculous cures of the blind and
deaf he is equally as successful in the treatment
of the Affections of the
NOSE AND THROAT.
He says the exposed position of these organs
makes them subject to variety of diseases
which, if unattended or treated incompetently,
are certain seedlings to lung affections which
will ultimately kin. at least shorten the golden
hours of life; hence too much Importance
not be attached to early attention of any Of
their affections. no matter how trivial it may at
first appear. Among the serious
THROAT AFFECTIONS.
may be mentioned Fungus Sore Throat, Syphi-
letic Sore Throat Lyrangitis, Pharyngitis,
Tonsilitis, Bronchitis tuberculosis, Ulcerous,
Paralysis of the Vocal Organs. Elongation of the
Uvula. Cleft Palate, Hyptrophy and Atrophy of
the Tonsils, etc. ETC., all of which too serious
to admit of anything less than exact constitu-
tional and local treatment In the
NOSE.
may be found polypi, ga foot" a tlmor which
occurs in the mucous membrane. 1t varies much
in size number and mode of adhesion. Fibrous
polypi are of compact texture, and do not degen-
crate into cancers The scrrhous true
cerous tumors, painful and bleeding. They oc-
cur at all ages, but are more frequent in young
adults. The growth manifests great tendency
to extend prolongations into the sinuses of the
nose and face; this is not only dangerous, but
produces a great deformity.
OZENA.
is ulcer in the nostril that gives off a feted
smell The putrid matter is composed of a
myriad of parasites (worms) If neglected or
maltreated the entire nasal passage becomes
eaten away, and the system becomes impreg-
mated with their poison.
CATARRH.
which is common in this changeable climate,
receives as much attention than any
other affection to which flesh is heir. The great
stumbling block to a cure is false diagnosis. By
some not informed. and those who have an I'm
fallable cure,n every affection of the and
head are called catarrh This is quite erroneous.
While it is a disease of the mucous membrane,
this membrane. anatomically considered. is the
same as the skin. and subject to a variety of dis
eases which quite as troublesome as catarrh.
Being hid in deep, remote recesses none but the
skilled specialist, who is supplied with all modern
appliances. can diagnose them with precision
necessary to prescribe a line of trea tment for
each special case Right here / wish to say
have one box or bottle from which cure
catarrh. My treatment is rational and exact,
cons titutional well as local, adapted to the
conditions and complications present, the success
of which is told by my patients, and their name
is legion in this vicinity.
